THE SCHOOL of DREAMS ACADEMY

At The School of Dreams Academy we integrate Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) plus a focus on service, into the educational experience. We are a New Mexico state authorized charter school, nationally accredited through AdvancEd, and the first charter located within the boundaries of Valencia County.

ADMISSION POLICIES

If there are enough spaces at a given grade level, all applicants will be admitted. If there are more applicants than spaces available, admission will be determined through a lottery. Applications(Initital inquiry) are available on this website or at the School of Dreams office at 906 Juan Perea Rd, Los Lunas, NM 87031.

The names of any students not admitted during the final enrollment window will be kept on a waiting list. Parents will be notified as to their child’s position on the waiting list. As spaces open up families will be contacted in waiting list order.

Student names will be categorized in a database based on the grade they will be entering in 2018-19. For a given grade level, if there are more spaces than student applications, all students will be accepted. If there are more applications than spaces, all the student names for that grade level will be entered into a lottery. On the day of the lottery, student names for a given grade level will be put into a hopper and pulled out one by one. The first name pulled will be assigned number one, the second name, number two, etc.

After all grade levels are filled, siblings of admitted students will also be admitted, even if this means over-enrolling their grade levels. The purpose of this policy is to allow families to keep their children together at the same school. Verification of sibling relationship is required. A sibling is defined as a brother or sister born to parents, a half or step sibling, or a foster child or student under legal guardianship of parent(s) of a child who has won a space through the lottery.
